About this guide

Troup County, Georgia, has about 72,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Troup County depends on where the incident happened: the Troup County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county, the agency that reports for the city inside a city. This guide names each agency, where its records page is and what the Georgia Open Records Act requires of it.

This guide covers which agency, the sheriff's reports, the cities' reports, how many reports, what the law requires and common questions.

Which Agency Holds a Report from Troup County

The report of an incident is released by the agency that took it; the court and the jail hold their own records of the same event, but not the report.

In Troup County that is the Troup County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county and for any city that contracts with it for police service, and the agency that reports for a city where the city has one of its own.

The FBI's list also places the State Patrol at La Grange in Troup County; a report taken on a state highway by it comes from that agency's own records office.

The Troup County Sheriff's Office is the county agency; it had 82 violent and 281 property crimes reported for 2025 and reported 516 arrests for 2025.

Its reports come from its records unit. The office's page SearchSystems verified is its jail page, at troupcountysheriff.org/Home/Jail (page title: Troup County Sheriff's Office), which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 23, 2026.
